That’s exactly what happened with my mom—mobile van was a lifesaver for the first check, but the follow-up was a headache. I wonder if some kind of telehealth check-in between visits could help? Even just a quick call might make a difference.

Yeah, totally get where you’re coming from. My dad had a similar experience—mobile van rolled up, did the initial work, but then it was like radio silence until the next visit. I’ve always thought a quick video call or even just sending pics of any issues could bridge that gap. Not everyone’s super tech-savvy, but even something basic would help. Honestly, relying on just those vans feels kinda patchy for ongoing stuff. Community centers at least have a front desk you can call if something flares up, you know?
